High school graduation

Developments in science and technology have created jobs that did not exist a
decade ago. A high school diploma opens doors for better employment and also for
higher education. Studies show that students who graduate from high school have
higher self-esteem, feel more confident in pursuing a career, and have opportunities
for higher lifetime earnings. In addition, improvement of graduation rates for the
current generation, benefits the next generation as well. Raising the level of
education attained by parents is a way to improve their children's outcomes in
areas ranging from health to academic achievement.
